Yes, the examinations has killed education because students learn or cram up subjects just in order to score marks but in terms of practical knowledge students do not learn anything which results in many students not getting jobs because of no practical knowledge to work in the real world, and even once the exams are over the students tend to forget everything they had studied because they had not applied those concepts in the real world ever.

Hi guys,

I think exams should not be the only criteria to judge a person talent may be he/she is good in another field. Students purely focus on mugging rather than learning because of this examination system and all of we know learning is more important than mugging. We should change our education system, where practical knowledge should get higher priority than theoretical knowledge. A little bit theoretical knowledge is also important.

The examination will not kill education. The examination is the method of measuring our ability. Examination makes students low and upgrade. It can write our future. A piece of paper decides our future.

One thing is there, students having different abilities not getting the place to show it in the exam. Their abilities suppress down. In my opinion, real education is natural life music, arts, social interactions, sports are real education.

Yes, the examination has a vital role to kill the education among the students. The students of this generation run after marks. 80% of the students don't have any knowledge about the subject as they mug up one night before the exam. Most of the parents pressurize their children fr getting good grades. Our education system compels the students to memorize as a result of which they lose deep interest in the subjects and become frustrated.

Examinations kill education, really I am agreeing with this. Exams are just to check the memorizing ability. I know many people who will score well in exams but they will be poor in practicals, this is because of their memorizing ability. Exams are just to vomit the words to answer sheet that had eaten from books. From my opinion, I will say that education system should be changed and practicals should be concentrated more.

THANK YOU.

Hello everyone.

In my opinion examination are not the education but the way of examination is killing the education.

Because people judge the students on their academic level.

We should judge a student on his/her whole knowledge not only on the academic basis.

Because all students are not same.

Some students are good in academic some are good in sports and some are good in other field.

A piece of paper can not decide your future.

Exams have not killed the education but the Indian education system is responsible for killing of education. In foreign countries education system is different and the mode of education is also different and students are enjoying it. But in our country, it is totally different from students are not focused on understanding but they are memorising.

And a common effect faced is conceptually weak and this leads to unemployment.

Thanks.

Hi Frnds,

From my point of view, examination has killed all education. Bcoz, All children have a talent like in
-> Studies
-> Sports
-> Dance
-> Art
-> Music
and etc.

So if we take the examination only studies get involved not any others. when a student takes 80% mark the 70% student will feel sad and it keeps on going. So when they cut exams all the children talent will come out and our India will be always first.

I think that examinations are important in some case.

If a student study everything in a practical way then he doesn't need to give exam and if he gives exam also then he will get nice marks.

He will win all the race in life.

But if he gave the exam by not understanding anything then he will fail in his life even though he would have secured highest marks in class.

So through examination one can't say who is intelligent.

The examination hasn't killed the education because by this only we can know the student's memory, brain power, and ability but some people think that students are copying in examinations so how we check the student's ability. From my opinion, the teachers should give the student's the different projects by roll number wise in the classroom like assignments so by this, we can check their knowledge and education.

Thank you!
